Hello,

The BCA (Bachelor of Computer Application) is a three-year computer-related degree course. IT (Information Technology) is a four-year undergraduate course. You have to pass the 10+2 from the science stream to do a course in IT but for BCA, you can pass 10+2 from any stream. The entrance exams for B-tech in It are IIT JEE, SRMJEE, WBJEE, VITEEE, etc. and for BCA, the entrance exams are IPU CET BCA, KIITEE BCA, etc.

Hope your doubts are cleared. Thank you,

Hello Vijay,

BCA (Bachelor of Computer Application) is a three-year undergraduate programme for students interested in pursuing a career in computer science. This programme is divided into six semesters, each lasting six months. Each student is obliged to complete a project and work for an organisation for four to six weeks throughout the course of six semesters. Students are required to provide a report following the completion of the project.

B.Sc IT (Information Technology) is a three-year undergraduate study that also includes computer science. It is a comprehensive programme for students interested in specialising in information systems and management. The primary goal is to prepare students who have a solid understanding of the theory of key disciplines such as operating systems, data bases, and data structure.

Students enrolled in BCA receive an academic foundation that prepares them for advanced careers in computer application, whereas B.Sc students learn more about the internet, technology, and management.

BCA provides a broad understanding of applications such as C++, financial accounting and management, and operations management. However, the latter is concerned with the internet, information systems, and management.

Students have a promising future in the IT industry. Students with a BCA degree can begin their careers as junior programmers and advance to senior programmers and project managers. A postgraduate degree in the relevant discipline is always desirable. While B.Sc students are labelled as computer professionals, they can begin their careers as a web designer, programmer, database user, network implementer, and so on.

B.Sc After successfully completing their degree programme, students can easily compete for further degrees such as M.Sc (IT), MCA, and MBA. Students with a BCA degree can pursue advanced degrees such as an MCA.

Hope that answers your question
